Madras Curtains.

The present fancy in curtains is for the
various styles, qualities and patterns that
come under the general head of madras
goods" Some of the now crepe Madras
goods have fine tinsel in the tiniest ilecks, but
this is not reSardcdas in any sense novelty,
it having appeared last season. The arrange
mcnt of the metal is somewhat novel, and for
this and for the exquisite combination and
blending of the many tints the new goods are
worthy of the highest praise.
The favoritc colors are of a somewhat sub
dued order. Brown in almost every shade,
the entire range Of olive, myrtle and sage
green's, copper, mandarin and every shade of
yellow, very little light blue, dashes of red
mostly verging on garnet, rosewood and
maroon, old rose, or faded rose as it is called,
brick color and all of the variations OF these
shades are found in the best aSsortments OF
these goods that are now coming from foreign
looms
A new fifty inch all silk grenadine curtain
stuff in fancy weave is attracting deserved
attention 1t is shown IN all colors, the gold
and ecru tints being the most desirable. Silk
brocading in Madras weave on scrim and
grcnadinc ground is shown in all popular col
ors and Observation-Disclosures and Furnisher.

Opinions vary as to who should be served
first at table. Some persons in fashionable
society insist that the hostess shout be first
attended to- 1t has been pointed out, how.
ever. that this fashion originated in ancient
times when the hospitable custom of poison
ing was in vogue and guests preferred to see
the hostess partake OF each dish before ventur-
ing themselves Poisoning except by rich
pastry and the like being not now in order, it is
generally concedrl that when there is but one
attendant, the lady guest sitting at the right
of the host, or the Oldest lady, should he
served first. As soon as the second person Is
helped there need be- no further waiting
before eating.
